Description

The witch and her cat fly happily over forests, rivers and mountains on their broomstick until a stormy wind blows away the witch's hat, bow and wand. They are retrieved by a dog, a bird and a frog, and each animal asks for a ride on the broom. One after the next climbs on, until the broom is so heavy that it snaps in two! What will happen next as they tumble into a bog and meet a greedy dragon?

  • Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson is a great book to take out in your classroom during the month of October. This book has a lot of rhyming words that the students can enjoy. The illustrations by Axel Scheffler are amazing, and children always like to look at the pictures. Each time the wind blows the witch loses something, and an animal on the ground helps her retrieve that item, but wants a ride on her broom in return. Will there be enough room for all of her friends?

  • Very cute. And this is a very UN-scary witch. My son loves the new broom at the end!

  • I think this might be my most favourite Julia Donaldson book, because you can make some of the sounds, and the poetry is so well done.

  • This is an adorable story about a witch who keeps loosing things while she is flying through the sky. Each time she drops somethings and goes to find it a helpful animal is there to give her back her lost item. Each animal asks if there is room for them to fly on the broom, and of course there is. When I read this to my second grade class they absolutely loved it, they were finishing the rhymes by the end of the story. Great to incorporate into a creative writing lesson.
